Chapter 762
That had been their dream for many years!
“No! I already told you. I won’t agree to marry Jacob. Grandfather already agreed to this and already rejected the proposal a few
days ago!” Iris said angrily!
She never expected Daisy to be so sinister, first wanting to get her to sell Elegante, then turning around and planning on making
her marry Jacob right after that!
It was despicable!
“That was then, and this is now! The elder handled everything in the family before this, but now that he’s ill, your father makes all
the decisions!” Daisy sneered.
“Yes, Daisy is right! Gilbert, times are different now. The Youngs are in a bad situation. If we get a marriage alliance with the
Lowes, it’ll be nothing but good for the family!”
“That’s right, Gilbert. As long as you agree to let Iris and Jacob get engaged, we’ll immediately support you in becoming the next
head of the family!”
They had wanted a marriage alliance between the two families in the first place. It was just that Elder Young had forcibly pushed
all of those ideas down.
With Elder Young in that state and the family’s dire situation, the intentions were renewed.
“I...” Gibert was feeling very emotional at that moment.
Even though he was first in line to take over the family, his strength and abilities were nothing special. daily new chapters upload

unhappy. It would not be very easy for him to take over the family smoothly!
Yet, at that moment, as long as he agreed to the marriage, he would be able to earn their support and easily assume the position
of head of the family!
There was no way he would not be tempted by that!
However, he knew that Iris would never accept a political marriage. It would be too shameless of him to sell his daughter off for
power and profit!
He was definitely hesitating.
“Dad, even if I have to die, I won’t agree to this! Can you not force me?” Iris pleaded to her father.
Before Gilbert could even answer, Daisy rushed forward. “Iris, this isn’t your choice to make! We asked you to sell Elegante
earlier, and you refused. Now, we’re asking you to marry Jacob, and you’re still refusing! What do you want us to do? You’re a
daughter of the family. Now that the family is in a difficult spot, you’re just allowing the family to sink for your own sake. You’re too
selfish!” Daisy said coldly.
Hearing Daisy’s words, Gilbert lost his hesitation and made a decision.
“Iris, I’m giving you a chance here! I’ll give you two choices right now. Either you sell Elegante to help the family, or you marry
Jacob! You can make your own choice!” Gilbert said coldly.
“I...” Iris paled. Her mood sank completely.
She had already given up a lot for the sake of the family, even losing the only man she loved.
Yet, what had she gotten in return? She either needed to sell Elegante she had worked so hard to bring up, or get engaged to
Jacob!
She felt a chill in her heart.
“Whatever, I’ll just sell Elegante...”
Iris bit her lips before she left miserably.
